Abstract

The de-NOx performance of sewage sludge chars activated physically using water vapor or chemically using KOH was evaluated. Characteristics of chars activated under different activation temperatures, water vapor concentrations, and KOH/char ratios were analyzed by N2 adsorption-desorption and FT-IR. Chemically activated chars were more efficient in removing NOx due to their higher surface area, oxygen functional group and NH3 adsorption than physically activated chars. The de-NOx performance of the activated chars is influenced more by chemical properties_x000D_ such as oxygen functional groups and NH3 adsorption sites than by physical properties like specific surface area and pore volume.
